Great Baddow's ugliest building is, at last, going to be demolished. Marrable House, better known as the old post office building at the Vineyards, Great Baddow, has been empty for many years and was voted one of the ugliest buildings in the country in a survey carried out at the turn of the millennium.
Developers Rubicon West, who own the entire Vineyards complex, are going to replace the building with 60 retirement homes as part of a £10 million project.
